The former Feyenoord defender is now moving to Italy to play for Lazio. The Dutch centre back had an excellent world cup, and it would be interesting to see how he adapts to the Italian environment.

14. Daryl Janmaat: Newcastle United

Another Feyenoord defender departed from the club, this time to join the English Premier League. Newcastle United acquired the services of the Dutch as a replacement for French defender Mathieu Debuchy to Arsenal, and I’ve to say, it’s a pretty good one.

The Bayern defender returned to field against Red Baroons Dietmannsried after being out of the football field for 594 days. He was given the captain’s armband for the 58 minutes that he played. Badstuber will undoubtedly be an important figure in the Bavarian defence.

The return of yet another injured star, the 21 year old will be an integral part of the Milan attack. Although he didn’t impressed much in the pre-season friendlies.

8. Adrian Ramos: Borussia Dortmund

Sure Ciro Immobile is the new poster boy of Dortmund, but Adrian Ramos was a huge success for Berlin last year, and will be an important factor for the German giants.

7. Frank Lampard: Manchester City

The Chelsea veteran quit the Premier League to join the New York City FC, but he has officially signed a 6 month on-loan deal with the English giants Manchester City, City as we all know is affected by the FFP Rules, so their participation in the transfer market was limited, but they will get a huge boost with Frankie  in their dressing room, it would be quite a sight to see Lampard in a new dress for a change.

6. Alvaro Morata: Juventus

Morata left Real Madrid for “The Old Lady”, and although he didn’t managed to start for Real, he still netted 8 goals, which is quite good for someone who comes on in the 80th minute. Expect him to shine at Juve with the likes of Pirlo and co.

5. Devock Origi: Liverpool

Origi had an impressive World Cup, he was energetic, dynamic, and a threat for the opposition, Although he may not start for Liverpool he will a player to keep an eye on.

4. Stevan Jovetic: Manchester City

With the injury problems of Aguero and Negrado, Jovetic just might be able to find his way in the starting XI, and he is in terrific form right now, don’t be surprised if he becomes one of the top scorers of EPL this season.

3. Jan Oblak: Atletico Madrid

What will you do if one of the world’s best goalkeeper leaves your team and join Chelsea? You sign Jan Oblak. The 21 year old ex-Benfica player had an amazing season with the Portuguese giants.. The Atleti fans would be waiting anxiously to see the Courtois replacement in action.

2. Antonie Griezmann: Atletico Madrid

Griezmann had a pretty good time in Brazil this summer, and along side Mario Manzukic he should perform good in the Atletico Jersey.

1. Juan Iturbe: AS Roma
